Simon Cowell Expects Men To Shine On Idol

Simon Cowell thinks 2009 will be the year men win American Idol. It’s not the first time he’s made such a prediction, but he thinks 2009 is the year of the Male.

“The guys overall, maybe about five or six of them, were just stronger and stood out more than the girls,” Cowell told reporters on a conference call yesterday. “But I’ve said this in the past and been wrong. Anything can happen.”

He added that last year’s crop was a bit too similar for some. With four judges this season, Idol promises to hold a bit more excitement than it did last year.
